Carpet height
adjustment
20 The cleaning of carpet and rugs
takes place at the nozzle (A).
When it is necessary to raise and lower
the nozzle for various carpet pile heights,
slide the nozzle control knob (B) to the
desired setting.
21 For ease in sliding knob, the handle
should be in the upright position (C).
The nozzle will not move into the
adjusted position until the cleaner
handle is lowered to the operating
position (D).
For maximum cleaning perfor-
mance,
the following carpet height
settings are recommended.
• Lowest setting: for all types of carpet
• Higher settings: for very deep pile
carpet where easier pushing effort is
desired, while maintaining good clean-
ing performance.
Note: If the cleaner is difficult to push,
slide knob to the next higher setting.

Stand on one end of rug and move
cleaner toward other end or edge.
Before reaching edge, push down on
handle. This will lift up the nozzle (front of
cleaner) as shown and will prevent rug
from clinging to cleaner. Continue to lift
up nozzle so that when you have reached
the edge, it is completely off the rug.
Move cleaner back to start again, lower
nozzle, and use only forward strokes.
